Some years ago, a favorite preacher and friend of mine had a series of workshops/seminars entitled “Feeling Good about Yourself” and “Feeling Good about Being a Christian,” or titles similar to these. The premise of those seminars was, I thought at the time, absolutely wonderful, eye-opening, and inspiring. The thoughts stuck with me for a long [...]
Following up on an idea planted in my mind some 10 days ago by a fellow blogger, I have made myself a “God Can.” Except my can is a vase. I made a label and taped it to the front. It says GOD CAN. On the back, following the example of Brady’s can, I put [...]
……………..a baby boy was born in Clay County, Arkansas. I imagine he had a head full of black hair and a lusty yell! He was named Johnie Webster and would grow up to be a small (in more ways than one!) farmer and a mechanic. (I am between 5′4″ and 5′5″, and as an adult, [...]
Our Wednesday night services began with a shared meal. Leftover chicken, side dishes, and bookoos of desserts from a meal provided for a family yesterday following a funeral. There’s nothing that beats eating with someone to encourage the “getting to know you” thing, and there were several someones in attendance. It was a lot of [...]

We began Friday evening by doing our daily walk at a local mall. Most of the time, we walk at our church building. However, [...]
Enough said. I’ll just share with you tonight that it’s been a nice day and some of:
TODAY’S SMILES & HAPPIES:
We spent a good portion of today with family.
Mae’s medical procedure to have her esophagus stretched went very well.
Mae shared with me how much she weighs! I’m sworn to secrecy, but you gotta luv ‘er and [...]
…………or you know that saying about “what a difference a day makes?” Well, I’ve been doing some ruminating today about what a difference the last 2-1/2 years have made in the overall landscape of my life.
